fruit cellar
Cool produce storage
A fruit cellar is an underground or basement storage space for preserving fruits, vegetables, and canned goods.
The cool, stable temperatures below ground keep produce fresh longer without refrigeration.
Also called a root cellar, though that term emphasizes root vegetables: The old farmhouse still had a fruit cellar stocked with mason jars.
